PROF. ADAMS
WRITES LETTER.
TKIJ-S or HIS VISIT TO ATHENS.
MANY EIH'CATIONAI. MAT
TICKS mSCL’SSEI).
On invitation of Chancellor
Hill, the County Superintendent’s
meeting held in Augusta in May,
adjourned to meet at Athens on
the 10, 11, and 12th inst.
A majority of the Superintend
ents roomed at the dormitory and
at<* at the mess-hall of the ('Diver
sity. Board atone dollar per day,
and as good as any hotel in the
city. Prof. Snelling is devoting
all his spare time, free of charge,
to this department to make it
possible for any boy of limited
means to attend the University.
I roomed with Mr. I). P. Hill, of
Monroe county, who told me that
twenty-seven years ago when he
was at the University he paid ten
dollars per month tuition and
twenty-seven dollars per month
board. The next year he roomed
at the dormitory and paid fifteen
dollars per month for board. Now
students can get board for eight
and a half dollars per month, and
tuition is free.
There is nothing now to keep
boys and girls from getting a
collegiate education if they have
the foundation for an education
properly laid and have the am
bition to persevere. Nearly all
colleges have what is called a loan
fund from which students can bor
row and pay back when they get
through. To think of these supe
rior advantages it makes me want
to live my life over again. It is
a very poor hoy that can’t make
a better man than his father.
This meeting was held princi
pally at the request of Dr. Butt
rick, secretary of the General
Educational Board. In order that
this Board might find out the
educational condition of Georgia,
over one hundred printed ques
tions were prepared and given to
each superintendent to he an
swered by him in writing. These
questions and answers will be sent
to this board for future use.
Many of their questions were
discussed at length in our meet
ing, and I think will do a great
deal of good.
There were some that thought
they could see tho “cat in the meal
tub.” Hut 1 think Dr. Butlrick
convinced the most of us that the
motives of the hoard were good.
Ho illustrated what his hoard
wanted to do by saying: “Near
Albany, N. Y., there is a very
steep grade, up which, there is not
an engine made that can pull a
train of loaded cars. Hut a little
dusty, dingy engine, that is not
allowed to ring its bell or toot
its whistle, is put behind these cars
and easily pushes them up the
grade and then backs out of the
wav without making any fuss
about what it has done.”
Dr. But-trick makes no promises
to any one, but pat iently hears
requests from all, has every word
taken down by his stenographer,
and when he goes back to New
York will state every case as it
was given to him.
lie has had, already, eighty-six
petitions from different schools in
Georgia. He intimated that only
about five would be helped for
the present. They do not propose
to help any community that does
not try to help itself.
Neither will they give any help
toward building a school house,
unless assurance is given that a
good school will be kept up after
the house is built.
1 am afraid they will not do
much in Georgia unless our con
stitution is amended so that each
county can have local taxation
without so much “red tape.”
Every other southern state has
better School laws than Georgia.
Florida pays two dollars to Geor-
giaone towards education. Hence
she has a nine months’ school.
1 think we have about as large
an appropriation from the state
as we are likely to get. and if we
get any more it will have to come
by local taxation, either by county
or incorporated districts.
I think the county should be
the unit. As our school houses
are now located, a school district
can hardly be incorporated with
out encroaching upon the territory
of some other school, and thus
I create hard feelings, and a great
deal opposition. The small amount
we get from the state has caused
the majority of patrons to quit
| paying any tuition at all. We
must have more money, in some
wav, if we ever educate our child

OUR CORRESPONDENTS.
Association at Bluff Spring.
The association at this place of
; Primitive baptists continued three
days, and was largely attended by
members of other denominations.
IThe Methodist and the Congre
gationalists increased the number
greatly, and they appeared to feel
and enjoy themselves as though
they were at a meeting of their
own. Ido not think that a mere
difference of opinion on theologi
cal questions should even have a
tendency to alienate the affections
of one person from another, for
we are commanded to love our
neighbor as ourselves, and that is
fullfilling the law.
I wish to say that I am surpris
ed when I hear a man say at this
[enlightened age of the world, that
he is seeking and trying to find
the true church of Christ. Why,
the church of Christ is as accessi
ble at one part of the world as
another, and he who embraces
Christ has not only found the true
church, but has actually entered
into it.
